Reviews
Really useful BSL resource
Easy enough to access. Alphabet and letters done.
When I switch from one video clip to another the audio from the first keeps playing, so I have two running together.
Video segments not very useful for those who have already purchased the module to learn.
Why don't you make this content free to encourage others to learn? Wouldn't that help take up by occasional users like me?
This is a really useful resource and very good value. Everything was very clear and I really enjoyed completing it. I would definitely recommend this to others.
